Why the claims are unreliable
"Near", "adjacent to", "minutes from" and "walking distance" carry no legal definition in property marketing. A distance may be measured as the crow flies, from the edge of a village boundary rather than the parcel, or from the nearest point of a 1,426-hectare airport site rather than its terminal.
None of that is necessarily dishonest. All of it can produce a number that bears little relation to how long it takes you to drive there.
The reference points that matter
Dholera International Airport sits at roughly 22.3626 N, 72.3039 E. The SIR core is around 22.2499 N, 72.1934 E. The ABCD administrative building is at approximately 22.2577 N, 72.1858 E. The Lothal NMHC site is near 22.5229 N, 72.2494 E.
Those four points anchor most valuation arguments in this region. Coordinates for every parcel listed on this site are published so you can measure distances yourself rather than accept ours.
How to measure
Put the parcel coordinates into any mapping tool. Measure driving distance and driving time, not straight-line distance.
Then ask the harder question: does proximity to this particular anchor actually drive value for this parcel? Land near the airport perimeter is not automatically valuable — airports generate noise, height restrictions and land-use constraints as well as demand.
A note on the airport itself
On 14 July 2026 the Ministry of Civil Aviation reported the airport at around 80 per cent completion, with runway, taxiway and ATC tower finished. A trial landing was reported in the press in June 2026 (no official record located). The Ministry aimed to operationalise the airport by September or October 2026.
That was a Ministry target, and the window has passed without a published DGCA licence or airline schedule; the current position is on our Dholera airport tracker. Indian greenfield airport timelines have moved before. If a purchase only works when the airport opens on schedule, you are taking more timeline risk than you probably intend.
